By organizing the Internal Planet Week, Nexans encourages employees to play a crucial role in achieving this ambitious goal. Through a diverse range of workshops, training sessions, clean-up operations and sustainability fairs, this event provided an opportunity for employees to deepen their understanding of climate change, familiarize themselves with Nexans' Climate Strategy, and discover tangible ways in which the company is actively reducing its greenhouse gas emissions.

By involving NGOs, local communities, and partners, Nexans has showcased its dedication to collaboration and collective action in addressing environmental challenges.

This successful and inspiring third edition exemplifies the company's unwavering commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship.

The Internal Planet Week not only encourages employee engagement but also demonstrates the Group’s alignment with global sustainability initiatives, such as the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi). By aiming for net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, Nexans leads meaningful change and setting an example for other organizations to follow.

As Nexans continues its journey towards a more sustainable future, it remains steadfast in its pursuit of innovative solutions, responsible practices, and the proactive engagement of its employees. The Internal Planet Week serves as a catalyst for ongoing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and build a more resilient and environmentally conscious organization.
